A thread for elderberries who are hovering in the bfp helicopter

[barkingtreefrog]

All elderberry grads welcome and anyone who fills berry criteria: ttc #1 a long time now finally bagged that elusive bfp, over 30...

Come join the next stage of the journey and compare sickness reports!!

Aaaargh 11.20 is a long way away!!

Is anyone else struggling to sleep? I don't really know if this is pregnancy related, but the last week at least I've been constantly waking up, not just for the loo (although that too, at least twice a night..), and feeling hungry/sick in the middle of the night to the point that it's stopping me sleeping. Anyone else?

Good luck Merk, sure everything is fine and dandy and will be nice for you to see that the wriggler has grown since last week!

Boom I had real trouble with waking up multiple times a night between 6 and 8 weeks too. Some of mine was food related (biscuits by the bed!) but some just seemed to be my brain that wouldn't switch off.
Good luck for you today too, its so exciting!

Good luck for scans today merk, boom and you too barking
My turn tomorrow... (8w)

Yes with the sleeping problems- from 5/6 weeks onwards I am regularly waking up too early and not being able to get back to sleep. I don't think it helps that I take my meds early too so I think that switches my brain on.

Oo new button on this page- can we upload photos into chat?!

Testing with my findings on whether to dye hair or not...

New button? Where? WHERE?

Can you see it boom?

Good luck boom and merk. And yes pregnancy insomnia is quite common and it gets worse in the end when you feel too big to move!
All good training for when baby comes haha

OOOh, text AND pictures! The 21st Century comes to MN! I don't know how you did that though.....

Thank you! I've just given myself some sort of repetitive strain injury refreshing this page!

I'm on my iPhone on the mobile site and above preview message it says choose file...

Oooh how weird, there's no button on the laptop. Mind you, MN is run by gremlins so it might take a while for it to filter down...

I need to dye my hair again but am considering going and getting hippy vegetable dye from the healthfood shop...I have no idea why I think this would be a better option

lol I don't remember being such an insomniac last time! Still, if it's an official symptom, I'll take it on the chin. Can't get enough symptoms, me..

Oo let me know if the veggie dye works- I have never found anything to successfully cover my greys. I didn't avoid it last time but obviously thus time I didn't need anything else to worry about! In my new bible book she found no clear evidence of adverse effects of dyeing hair on pg and that's enough for me!

Should we be lowering the winch btw?

Who are we lowering the winch for?

I'm not sure she's outed herself on MN yet! Nice chopper though

Blind??

Wow

Ladies, you might want to pop over to the TTC thread and offer Barking some support, she's had bad news

Good luck boom

Poor poor barking, just the shittiest news.

Shhhhhhhhh about the winch then

(Button for pictures has now disappeared, boo)

All fine on my scan

Whoop whoop, nice one merk. Pics?????

Yay merk!
Great news - need more details!
